Hi, I'm trying to set up Sendmail to "send-only". I just want Sendmail sends local mails (i.e.: daily security run output) to my SMTP server. I use : # cd /etc/mail # make to generate a `hostname`.mc file. I edit it, and add : define(`SMART_HOST', `[192.168.1.6]') (I tried without brackets, and with names) then : # make install # make restart-mta I use # date | sendmail -v postmaster but I can see in the output that Sendmail sends the mail to the local server. It seems that my SmartHost is ignored. I can ping the smarthost (whith IP and name), and telnet mail.domain.com 25 works fine. It's suggested in the Handbook to use ssmtp in this case (send-only), but I red that it was unable to send HTML mails. Is that true ? If not, I'll use it. So, can somebody tell me where I am wrong ? and what can I do to use a smarthost ?
In a similar environment, I edit `hostname`.submit.mc and define a MAIL_HUB there:
define(`MAIL_HUB', `smtp.my.net') Should work after make install and restart. Good luck!
